In today's episode (Ep 5), we discuss the things we've learned about the game so far. We're slowly getting better, folks! How far can Ted get in this run? Find out THIS time in The Basement!
Here's a fun article about the gal who did the voice acting in this game over at Nintendo Love Affair:

Michelle Sundholm, a singer/songwriter from Portland, Oregon, has been singing professionally for the past twenty years. Her career has brought her many unique experiences including becoming the voice of Maggie in the recently released Wii U eShop title Star Ghost.
“Maggie exists as an AI, originally based on the uploaded consciousness of a human. In Star Ghost she is acting as the interface between the player and the ship.” - Rhys Lewis, creator of Star Ghost.
NLA: Why did you get into voice acting?
Michelle: As long as I can remember, I’ve always had a passion for bringing words to life through spoken word and music. I’ve been singing professionally for over 20 years and have always appreciated what a microphone does for the voice. It brings out every texture and emotion. It is the sidekick to the voice, the partner in crime, so to speak. I’ve done some voiceover work here and there over the past 10 years, but it wasn’t really until September of 2013 that I decided to really go for it and make it my full-time ambition!
NLA: Any inspirational people in your life that have helped to move you forward in the business?
Michelle: Although I’ve always been very comfortable with a microphone, I felt I had so much more I could learn. I decided to study voice acting from one of the best in the industry, a very good friend of mine, Melissa Disney. She has voiced The Oscars, The Emmy’s, was the official voice of Snow White and was the first female ever to voice a movie trailer (Gone in 60 Seconds). I trained with her weekly via Skype for a year and in the meanwhile started to create the Michelle Sundholm Brand.
NLA: What is some of your most notable or enjoyable work?
Michelle: I’ve had so much fun working with different companies and their producers, writers, and editors. I’d have to say, I was beyond thrilled when Squarehead hired me to voice Star Ghost. There has been such great feedback on this game and I’m very proud that I was asked to be involved.
NLA: Any non videogame related work?
Michelle: I also voiced a job for Canon. I have great respect for their high quality equipment and customer service. I voice the spot called “Treasure Hunt” for their Canon Selphy Printer. It’s a very clever way to tell a story.
Michelle: I’ve had the privilege to work with other high profile companies such as Red Bull, Coca-Cola, Seagate Technologies, IBM, Domino’s Pizza, Mars Inc. and more.
NLA: So how did you come about the Star Ghost job?
Michelle: Star Ghost game developer, Rhys Lewis with Squarehead, emailed me directly and asked if I’d like to voice his upcoming project. It took all but a second for me to decide, and the rest is history[...] (more at link above)
